A Detailed Study of the Most Relaxed SPT-Selected Galaxy Clusters: Cool Core and Central Galaxy Properties
M. McDonald, S. W. Allen, J. Hlavacek-Larrondo +14
We present a multi-wavelength analysis of the four most relaxed clusters in the South Pole Telescope 2500 deg^2 survey, which lie at 0.55 < z < 0.75. This study, which utilizes new…
X-ray cavities in a sample of 83 SPT-selected clusters of galaxies: Tracing the evolution of AGN feedback in clusters of galaxies out to z=1.2
J. Hlavacek-Larrondo, M. McDonald, B. A. Benson +16
X-ray cavities are key tracers of mechanical (or radio mode) heating arising from the active galactic nuclei (AGN) in brightest cluster galaxies. We report on a survey for X-ray ca…
The Redshift Evolution of the Mean Temperature, Pressure, and Entropy Profiles in 80 SPT-Selected Galaxy Clusters
M. McDonald, B. A. Benson, A. Vikhlinin +63
(Abridged) We present the results of an X-ray analysis of 80 galaxy clusters selected in the 2500 deg^2 South Pole Telescope survey and observed with the Chandra X-ray Observatory.…
